It was the biggest victory in human history. It was won by the highest price, won over the most terrible enemy ever threatening the world. Workers, farmers, students, intelligentsia, people of the wide range of civilian occupations went to the front line to defend the Motherland in the battles of unprecedented rage and scale.

It was a victory of valor, because our warriors were fighting with extraordinary bravery. 

It was a victory of dedicated work, because our workers and peasants were working with great commitment.
